Though widely considered to be a doorway into the world of classical music the piano has been adapted by many over the years into jazz bebop and ragtime by musicians such as Scott Joplin Duke Ellington and Herbie Hancock. It has even been incorporated into rock and roll music by Jerry Lee Lewis Little Richard Elton John Billy Joel Stevie Wonder and Ray Charles. The individual pieces are simply popped out of the two metal sheets and assembled without the use of solder or glue by simply bending and/or twisting the connection tabs. A metal base (to be assembled) comes with the model to hold it aloft. Assembled it becomes an authentic museum-quality laser cut replica of a grand piano.
